Dear PoP – Sherman Ave Streetscape Info

“Dear PoP,

I live on Sherman Ave between Kenyon and Lamont and just received a DDOT flyer in the mail with lots of interesting information about the Sherman Ave streetscape project, including a number of images and a project timeline. A copy of that flyer is available here:

I know Sherman Ave gets beat up a lot by some commenters so it’s nice to see the plans in the works. Very cool that they’ll be widening the sidewalks, adding bike lanes and adding landscaped medians. What do you guys think about the plans to change it from 2 traffic lanes in each direction to one traffic lane in each direction?
